The I Hate Star Wars App



The one thing that sets Star Wars fans apart from any other fandom is how much they hate Star Wars. It started when George Lucas made this perfect little space opera in 1977, and then a second good movie, and after that nothing else in the entire canon has has been able to live up to expectations. As the Star Wars universe expanded, everyone found something to hang their frustrations on. Lucas even went back and changed the good movies, which made fans hate them, too. Now that there are a dozen or so feature films followed by a full schedule of TV shows on Disney+, there's plenty for Star Wars fans to hate. (via Geeks Are Sexy)

George Lucas--before the original "Star Wars" came out in '77--announced their were going to be 9 movies.

So the movies known by their numbers (1-9) are Lucas' fault/credit; the other movies and most of the shows are Disney's fault/credit.

The Holiday Special with Bea Author is humanity's fault.

I loved the first three, the originals. But I don't hate the others, I'm ambivalent toward them. They're space movies, a couple have some good parts,
but just aren't part of my Star Wars circle... or triangle I guess.

A lot of westerns on TV had cattle, saloons, and fights, but they weren't Gunsmoke.
